Default Hot Wire vs Castle Link

I was just wondering...I have a Castle Link do I need to purchase the Hot Wire for my Tekin speed control? Or will the Castle Link work as long as I have the Hot Wire Software?

It won't work....The Castle Link is made to only work with the firmware for the Castle ESCs

Castle Link only works with Castle.

Tekin Hot wire only works with Tekin.

I bought the hotwire when I got my FX-R and wish I didn't. The ESC can be programed without it just as easy. The FX-R rocks but don't waste your money on the HW.... IMO.

Is Tekin pronounced tech-in or Tee-kin? I know it's off subject, but I have to ask!
